摘要:
To provide a charging member that can not easily change in electrical resistance even by any long-term continuous application of direct-current voltage and, as a result thereof, may cause less change in its charging performance with time. The charging member has an electrically conductive support and an electrically conductive elastic layer. The elastic layer contains a vulcanized rubber. The vulcanized rubber is a vulcanized product of a mixture which contains i) a binder polymer containing a polymer having a butadiene skeleton and ii) carbon black, where the polymer having a butadiene skeleton stands modified at the molecular terminal(s) thereof with a group represented by the following formulas (1) or (2).

A DMA control device and a data transfer method, which make it possible to use a DMA channel independent of an operation mode of a processor and realize the protection of DMA control parameters during DMA operation (during a data transfer), while reducing the number of shift of an operating mode of the processor as small as possible, are provided. In requesting a DMA start by locking an access to a ch-0 DMA control register 114 in a secure mode, a CPU 101 instructs an unlock set register 118 to release an access lock when the transfer is completed. Then, when a parameter controlling circuit 119 receives a notification of transfer completion from a ch-0 state managing circuit 116, such parameter controlling circuit instructs a lock set register 115 to release the lock in accordance with the setting of the unlock set register 118.

A recording member cutting device for cutting a continuous recording material along a side of a plurality of cutting areas defined in the continuous recording material includes a nick cutting mechanism, and an area cutting mechanism. The nick cutting mechanism includes a first cutting unit configured to form a hole-shaped nick for each cutting area. Each nick is located outside the plurality of the cutting areas, on a downstream side of the corresponding cutting area in the conveying direction and on a line extending along one side of the corresponding cutting area. The one side is along the conveying direction. The area cutting mechanism includes a second cutting unit configured to insert into the nick. The second cutting unit cuts, when the nick has been formed, the continuous recording material along the one side from a position of the nick.

A smoke detecting device including: a light-emitting portion that emits light; a light-receiving portion that receives scattered light resulting from the light which the light-emitting portion emits being scattered by smoke generated from a recording medium on which flash-light is irradiated from a flash fusing device; and a judging section that acquires a light amount signal of the received light, from the light-receiving portion, and that judges, on the basis of the light amount signal, whether or not smoke has been generated from the recording medium on which flash-light is irradiated from the flash fusing device, the light that the light-emitting portion emits passing through a space between the flash fusing device and the recording medium, is provided.
摘要:
In an elastic member for electrophotography, having a conductive or semiconductive elastic layer, the elastic layer contains a vulcanized rubber obtained by vulcanizing a material rubber in the presence of a specific sulfur-atom-containing compound as a vulcanization accelerator that can not easily cause any scorching at the time of high-temperature kneading and extrusion, and yet has relatively high vulcanization rate and also can provide vulcanized rubbers with superior quality.

摘要:
A semiconductive rubber composition is provided having superior electrical properties, such as superior uniformity, small voltage dependence, small environmental dependence, and stability with time. In addition, the semiconductive rubber composition can be used for forming a charging member which suppresses contamination of a member to be charged, such as a photosensitive member. In the semiconductive rubber composition, a dispersed domain structure is formed having a polymeric continuous phase composed of an ion conductive rubber material primarily containing a raw rubber A having an intrinsic volume resistivity of 1×1012 &OHgr;·cm or less and a polymeric dispersed phase composed of an electron conductive rubber material and conductive particles mixed therewith.
摘要:
A circuit includes a code sequence generator which generates a maximum length linearly occurring code sequence and which has a plurality of code data outputs coupled to respective inputs of a multiplexer, the multiplexer having an output which is coupled to an input of a three-state buffer. The output of the multiplexer and an output of the buffer are coupled to respective output terminals of the circuit. A control circuit supplies select signals to the multiplexer which cause the multiplexer to couple a selected one of its inputs to its output, and supplies to the buffer a control signal which selectively enables and disables the buffer.
